Two stick figures peer editing

Peer Editing
these videos and slide shows were surprisingly helpful. I think the First video Whats Peer Editing?
and the slide show Peer Edit with Perfection! shared a lot of the same information, but were both very informal. Peer editing is never fun. These helpful tips really make it a lot easier to critique someone else’s work, without feeling like you are putting them down. Having to correct a peer’s work is best accomplished by using compliments, suggestions, and then corrections. This seems to be easier said then done for most of us though as you will see in the last video I watched Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes

In this video it reminds us not to be like picky patties in other words don’t be over judgmental. Make sure to take the advice you are given by your peers, and don’t be whatever William take the advice and fix what you have messed up. This humorous video is helpful to remind you of all the different things we over look when being peer review or when your peer editing someone else’s work. All this video’s and slide shows help to give you a better understanding of what is expected of you.

  1. "these videos and slide shows were surprisingly helpful." These should be capitalized. Also, why were they "surprisingly helpful"? Everything Dr. Strange assigns is helpful in this class, he doesn't give "busy work".

    "Make sure to take the advice you are given by your peers, and don’t be whatever William take the advice and fix what you have messed up." Do you feel that you HAVE to take the advice given? What if it was not effective advice? It would be easier to read if you put "Whatever William" and "Picky Patties" into quotations so that the reader can tell they are characters. They should definitely be capitalized though.

    "This humorous video is helpful to remind you of all the different things we over look when being peer review or when your peer editing someone else’s work." "When being peer review? Did you mean peer reviewed? Also, it should say you're not your in, "when your peer editing someone else’s work"

    Remember to keep these guidelines in mind when completing you C4C's this semester and also in your classroom.
